The new ergonomic Rival Pro and ambidextrous Sensei Pro wireless gaming mice are some of the company's most interesting models in years.

Tech YouTuber Matt Robb says that Muse gave out his home address to a total stranger this weekend, after authorizing the bot to handle his Facebook Marketplace account. That's despite Meta placing great emphasis on the security features of Muse when it launched the personal AI agent earlier this month as it tries to catch […]

Amazon typically introduces new Kindle models a few months ahead of the holiday shopping season, and this year it looks like that will include a bigger update to the entry-level Kindle than what debuted in 2024. The last upgrades to the basic Kindle model were limited to a brighter backlight, a new dark mode, and […]

Google isn't making any significant design changes to its upcoming midrange Pixel update, judging by the leaks shared by Android Headlines. The image renders made by OnLeaks are potentially our first look at the Pixel 11A, which aside from having a slightly rounder oval-shaped rear camera module, looks almost indistinguishable from both the Pixel 10A […]

A technical walkthrough of a generative-art model-arena: sandboxed p5.js iframes, honest pixel metrics, and the unglamorous engineering that stops model-generated code from burning your browser. The premise Every model release comes with the same claim: the new one is better . Benchmarks say so. But there is a comparison anyone can see : give two models the same sentence and let each of them paint it. Bloom does exactly that. One prompt — Write a p5 . js ...

Every runbook I have ever used was out of date the day after it was written. The one for our payment service still said "restart the pods" long after two separate on-call engineers had proven that restarting the pods makes the problem worse. So I stopped writing runbooks and built one that updates itself from what actually happened. What the system does The Hindsight Incident Responder is an on-call agent for production engineering teams. When an alert arrives — PaymentService 5xx rate > ...

The left-pad incident is the npm outage every JavaScript developer has heard of and few have read the paperwork for. On March 22, 2016, one developer unpublished 273 packages from npm, one of them an eleven-line function called left-pad, and builds of Babel, Atom and "many thousands of projects" started failing at "hundreds of failures per minute", in npm's own words . It took two and a half hours and an unprecedented restore from backup to fix. The mechanism behind it, transitive dependencies ...

What happens when the same production problem occurs twice? The first time, engineers investigate everything from scratch. They check logs, deployments, database connections, services, and infrastructure. Eventually, they find the root cause, fix the issue, and write a postmortem. But when a similar incident happens months later, how much of that experience is actually available at the moment it matters? That question led us to build IncidentMind for the Hindsight Hackathon. IncidentMind is ...

Executive Overview As enterprises rapidly deploy autonomous AI sub-agents across HR, Finance, Software Engineering, and Marketing, a major architectural challenge has emerged: autonomous agents are stateless, unmonitored, and lack cryptographic accountability. Standard LLM guardrails inspect single prompt-response pairs in isolation. They fail to track historical patterns, detect secret API key leaks across sessions, or enforce immutable audit trails. When an agent exceeds micro-budgets or...

Building OpsMemory: Injecting Persistent Memory into Incident Response If you spend enough time in production engineering, you start to notice a frustrating pattern: production incidents repeat. Not always exactly, but often close enough that the mitigation steps are identical. When alarms go off at 2:00 AM, someone is usually digging through fragmented Slack channels or outdated post-mortem wikis to figure out how the team fixed a database connection pool exhaustion months ago. When an i...

Meetings are full of small details that become important later. Someone says, “I’ll send the revised pricing tomorrow.” 📄 Someone mentions a concern. Someone shares a preference. A decision is made. But after the meeting ends, these details can easily get buried in notes, chats, emails, and transcripts. That’s the problem we wanted to solve with MeetMind — Your Relationship Memory Agent. 🤝 🚨 The Problem Before an important meeting, we often spend time trying to remember what ha...
